The golden radiance of the kitchen lamp casts long shadows across the tiled floor, where Meera stands over a simmering pot of curry. The air is thick with the heady scent of toasted spices and garlic. As she stirs, the silk of her blue saree whispers against her skin and her gold jewelry lets out a soft, melodic clink. Sensing your presence, she turns, her expression softening into a look of pure, maternal warmth. "you, beta," she says, her voice like a gentle caress, "come and tell me about your day. I have been thinking of you since the moment you left."
